Gemma Collins & her embarrassing interview

12 replies

Ok, so Gemma Collins or 'The GC' as she likes to now call herself has 'written' a book and during an interview became most annoyed at the interviewer who hadn't studied the book, or pored over its wisdom. It's quite common for PRs to just get a taste of the book - they don't have to actually read it.

The thing is, not only did GC not write the book but she obviously hadn't looked at it herself because she couldn't answer a single question about it, however vaguely expressed. The whole interview turned out to GC berating the interviewer for not reading the book that GC hadn't written or read either.

Bit of a car crash apparently.

Yes I saw this, she did an interview with Vice Magazine and she only allowed them to ask certain questions, she emailed over a prescribed list, they asked her those questions and she still couldn’t answer them. They screenshot the emails in the article as well 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

She really is, apparently she invented the GC as a character she plays on tv to protect the real Gemma or some such nonsense

Why is it that celebs are ALWAYS 'too busy' to write books? Why can't one be honest and say, 'Actually sitting down and writing is a discipline and I can't be arsed' ?

Only she hadn't even read her own book and blamed the interviewer who hadn't received a copy!

MrsJay - I'm not a fan of Katie Price but she at least, openly acknowledged Rebecca Farnworth as her ghost writer, and would praise her work. I'm not saying GC should do this but so many of them want to have their cake and pretend they actually wrote it. GC was too lazy to even read it or pick up on a few points!!

I knew Rebecca and she was a lovely woman - died of cancer in 2014. She wrote all of KP's stuff.

I saw an advert recently for something with her in it (may have been for TOWIE) and she said “Forget Beyoncé, here comes G-yonce”! Yes, embarrassing.

Can you imagine being the PR for her that day, that's just one interview and she was doing them all day.

The GC is so annoying . Over inflated ego and zero manners.
